A storage system for storing material such as sample tube caps comprises a drawer with a reservoir, the drawer being movable between a first position and a second position. A storage container is arranged below the reservoir of the drawer when the drawer is arranged in the first position. A transport device is configured to retrieve material from the storage container and to transport the material out of the storage container. Therein, the reservoir of the drawer comprises a bottom with at least one closable opening.

A storage container for a storage and dispensing station for small piece goods, in particular drugs or dietary supplement products, is provided. The storage container includes a housing having a circular cylindrical section, a separating device having a plurality of channels and a base area arranged in the circular cylindrical section of the housing, as well as a retainer. The base area of the separating device is provided with a plurality of depressions and/or elevations, at least in sections, to reduce a possible contact area between the base area and small piece good, the shape and size that is selected in such a way that an electrostatic attraction between small piece goods and the base area is reduced.

A packaging system for packaging granular food items for shipment includes a plurality of granular food item bags, each granular food item bag having a side surface. A folder has at least one crease with a first half having a first inner surface on one side of the crease and a second half having a second inner surface on an opposing side of the at least one crease. The side surface of each granular food item bag is attached to the first inner surface of the first half of the folder and the granular food item bags are arranged in and N×M array on the first inner surface of the first half of the folder. The folder is then folded along the at least one crease so the second inner surface of the second half of the folder is folded over the granular food item bags attached to the first inner surface.

A dispenser for BBs eliminates binding because the BBs first fill into a groove of the dispenser that is only wide enough to hold BB's single file. The remaining BBs fall back into the main cavity of the dispenser, allowing the BBs in the groove to pass through the dispenser hole one-by-one.

Methods of dispensing small piece goods are provided. The method includes storing one or more small piece goods in a storage container for a storage and dispensing station, reducing, by the plurality of contact reducing members, a contact area between the separating device base area and the one or more small piece goods within the storage container, rotating the separating device within the housing to situate a first channel above the dispensing opening, the first channel containing a first small piece good and dispensing the first small piece good through the dispensing opening Methods of using a system for storage and dispensing of drug portions are also provided.

A child resistant pill container includes a base having individual compartments. A lid rotatably fits over the base and has a closed cover defining one open section. A releasable lock arrangement is between the base and the lid. The lid can be rotated relative to the base to position the open section in the lid over one of the individual compartments in the base.
